Loading Actions -- Gettin' Fine Now

1. No, "leaving the hands at the Top" refers to the Lower Body leading the Start Down from the Top. "Resisting the change of direction" refers to the Hands deliberately stopping their travel during the last stage of the Backstroke, thus causing the momentum of the Club to load the Pressure Points.

2. Unless the Pivot itself -- specifically the Right Shoulder Turn Thrust -- is actively used to take up the Clubhead's Angular Inertia (the Clubhead Lag / 10-19-A), it supplies only leading motion and thus cannot be considered a Power Source.

Learning . . .

Cool! You can see this in your motion very definitely!

Is the "Resisting the change of direction" stopping the hands travel limited to Hitters? Or is this used by Swingers not going to End as well?


Thanks you sir!

Lag Loading And Assembly Points -- Hitting And Swinging

"Resisting the Backstroke motion" (7-19-1) is the Hitter's method of Loading the Right Elbow to Drive (10-19-A) the entire Primary Lever Assembly (Left Arm and Club) from the Top (10-21-A). Should he choose to go to the End (10-21-C), he must resist the formidable tendency to then Accelerate the Clubshaft (only) Longitudinally (Pull it lengthwise as if a piece of string) rather than the entire Assembly Radially (Push it from behind as if an Axe Handle). Study 2-K and 7-23.

"Throwing the Club against the Lag Pressure Point" (7-19-3) with the Pivot is the Swinger's method of Loading the Left Wrist to Drag (10-19-C) the Secondary Lever Assembly (the Clubshaft only) from the Top or End (10-21-A/C).

For Full Strokes, Hitters may alternatively use a Downstroke Side Assembly Point (10-21-E). Or, a Downstroke Top Assembly Point (10-21-D) if the inclination toward Longitudinal Acceleration is properly Compensated. Swingers may alternatively use either procedure without concern for an improper Loading due to the chosen Assembly Point.

For Short Strokes, both Hitters and Swingers use the Side Assembly Point (10-21-B).

I resembled that remark!

I'm not sure there's a better Right Forearm Flying Wedge on Tour and it's there at set up to boot.



This is impressive

Indeed - the 'model' swinger IMO - nice contrast to Appleby

EXACTLY! Appleby has "pure" alignments.

The Left Hander's Flying Wedges

For the 'lefty' that would be the Left Forearm Flying Wedge.

Remember, the Left Hander's entire Right Arm lies within the plane of the perpendicular Right Wristcock Motion. Hence, the Right Arm Flying Wedge. However, only the Left Forearm -- not the upper Left Arm -- lies in the plane of the Clubshaft / Sweetspot. Hence, the Left Forearm Flying Wedge.
